This
press release announces production of BlowOut, an upcoming console and PC 3D
action game that promises to take "the side-scrolling shooter genre to a
distinctively new level." Here's a bit: "In BlowOut, gamers assume the
role of Major John 'Dutch' Cane, a leader of a mercenary commando platoon,
fighting against the deadliest enemies the universe has ever seen. A U.S. Marine
Space Force headquarters has been overrun by the vicious mutant Xenomorphs,
leaving a gap in the operational defenses. Gamers must use specialized sensor
equipment and massive firepower to locate and take out the enemy before they
have a chance to zero in on the station's control center and threaten colonized
space." Update: Turns out this is the same "Doom, Abuse and Starship
Troopers combo" announced in April (story).
